SNATCHING THEM OUT OF WHAT "FIRE"?
One's life's work
must be built on The Christ if it is to remain after being "revealed by
means of fire". It cannot be composed of spiritually combustible works
relating to material things. (See 1 Cor 3:11 17). In Hebrews 1:7 it is
written: "Also, with reference to the angels He says:
"And He makes his angels spirits, and his public servants a flame of fire.""
(See also Heb 1:13,14).
"Being reproached
for the name of Christ"
will cause one to experience a burning within one's spirit, for "the
Spirit of God, is resting upon you." This kind of "burning"
is for a trial
(a testing of one's faith and/or character).
But is this "burning" the "fire" we
are to snatch (save) some that have doubts from out of ? No. It certainly
is not. (1 Peter 4:12-14).
CONFLAGRATION:
A great and destructive fire. Within the spirit of sinners Almighty God will
cause their spirit to become a consuming fire, especially
so
within apostates falsely claiming
to be sons
of Zion.
APOSTASY:
Abandonment of religious faith, vows, principles, (Aposta: withdraw). The
works of members of sectarian religions will be "completely burned with
fire". (Rev 18:8. Heb 12:25-29).
"FOR OUR GOD IS ALSO A CONSUMING
FIRE."
(Heb 12:29).
One cannot know God
unless one first has come to know and obeys the
"good news"
of our Lord Jesus. But
salvation through faith in the "good news" of
The Christ has come to a finish!*
This is because the "Little Scroll" of Revelation chapter 10 has,
in these last woeful days of the "sounding" of the seventh
angel, brought an end to the gathering of people of God through
faith.
The "Little Scroll" has been received
and is being declared by His faithful saved slaves.
(Rev 10:8 11).
Consequently, anyone to be saved
thereafter may only be saved through
Spirit "burning" as a trial
of that one's character. But as for the consuming "fire"
of God being kindled against the rest of mankind, it will lead them to
demonstrate their wrath against God! (Rev 11:18). It was
"sweet" to receive Spirit knowledge and the work of exposing apostates
and other wilfully stubborn sinners, but their wrath against God is a bitter
denunciation of them. (Rev 11:18). See "Little Scroll"
666A Alpha to 666X Omega
and 777
to
887.
To attempt to snatch persons out of the consuming "fire" of the
Judgement of God would be reckless. The destiny of apostate covenant-leavers is
Matthew 25:1 13. |
"…keep yourselves in
God's love, while you are waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ with
everlasting life in view. Also, continue showing mercy to some that have doubts;
save [them] by snatching [them] out of the fire."
(Jude
V.21-23).
"For no man
can lay any other foundation than what is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Now if
anyone builds on the foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood materials,
hay, stubble, each one's work will become manifest, for the day will show it
up, because it will be revealed by means of fire; and the fire itself will
prove what sort of work each one's is. If anyone's
work that he has built on it remains, he will receive a reward;
if anyone's
work is burned up, he will suffer loss, but he himself will be saved; yet if so,
[it will be] as through fire. Do you not know that you people are God's
temple, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? If anyone destroys the
temple of God, God will destroy him; for the temple of God is holy, which
[temple] you people are."
(1 Cor 3:11 17).
"…but in the days of the sounding of the seventh angel, when he is about
to blow his trumpet, the sacred secret of God according to the
good news*
which He declared to His own slaves the prophets is indeed brought to a
finish."
(Rev 10:7).
